British Mission to Japan, "The Effects of the Atomic Bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki", 1946. Notice that this book contains an error in casualty curve, by assuming that the 15,000 school children clearing firebreaks outdoors in Hiroshima for which immediate casualty records were available (who were mainly in the open and on the roofs of wooden houses, removing roofing) are representative regardless of the locations of people indoors or outside, and regardless of the type of building. For the smaller number of casualties in modern city buildings within the city of Hiroshima, please see Clayton S. White, MD, report number DASA 1271, Figure 44.
